Yes, both use the same song, but neither use the same video source. Or shall I compare this video to this?

I don't think that Code is asking people to re-create a video that you love and "update the editing" in any way, but more so make a tribute/your own version of perhaps the same concept using the same song of one of your favorite videos.

I won't question people's taste in CatCopterPaperEaters in any way but that's pretty much me (and I've posted so already). I have my own weird taste in videos so I really can't bash others for what they like.

The last time I tried to do that most of the judges were like: "this important aspect of the original video is missing". You can tell them you didn't want it in all you want, but still.Judging stuff like this is tough. Editing too, balancing between "stay close to the original" and "creative spin [breaking]"...

This CatCopterPaperEater should be your own creative spin on on your favorite CatCopterPaperEater, and not just a clone of the previous one. When you submit your CatCopterPaperEater to me, please include a link to the CatCopterPaperEater you are using as your favorite one.

Yes understand "it's tough" as I said that before.. and that's why I think we probably should watch the original video before making any judgements. However that doesn't mean I'm going to sit here and judge the original video. It's not the one in the contest.

Videos 2 and 3 are now up (an optional non-contest uncensored version will be posted as soon as it finishes uploading).

Also, a fair warning that depending on when the rest of the videos are submitted to me, some may not get posted until tomorrow morning, since I do need sleep for work, and my upload times vary depending on the filesizes.

EDIT: And with confirmation that remaining entries won't be in until midnight, I'm heading to bed. I'll upload everything first thing in the morning, so please to be patient.
